I got accosted today by a lady in a blue wig near the Flatiron Building. She thrusted a flyer into my hand and directed me to the cross the street and go into the Tria Beauty Blue Lounge. I usually ignore the flyer people (as I like to call them) but when she mentioned free beauty treatments, I thought, "What the heck...I'm going in that direction anyway." I was expecting something rather shady but instead I was pleasantly surprised to find that this was a legit promotion.
Tria Beauty has come out with a new product, the Clarifying Blue Light:
The claim per Tria Beauty's brochure is that the blue light emitted from this device will "[heal] existing breakouts and [eliminate] the bacteria that causes them." I can't really say whether or not blue light therapy works but it was fun for about 2.5 minutes. Then I got bored running the device over my face. The suggested therapy time is 5 minutes. Personally, I will be sticking with my Tazorac.
I passed on the free make-up application session as well as the free hair "blue" out, but I did snag a blueberry gummy bear on my way out!
The Tria Beauty Blue Lounge will be open thru 4/13/10. If you're in the Flatiron neighborhood and want to check this out, here's the address: 155 Fifth Ave (b/w 21st & 22nd St), New York, NY. The hours are as follows: M-F 11:30 am - 7:30 pm; Sat 10:00 am - 6:00pm; and Sun 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm.
